CORNER BROOK
— Newfoundland Progressive Conservative Leader Danny Williams
unveiled a key plank in his party's election platform on
Tuesday, pledging to give families in Newfoundland and Labrador
$1,000 for every baby born or adopted in the province.

The Tory leader – on the first full day
of campaigning for the Oct. 9 vote – said the bonus would be
aimed at reversing the province's dwindling birth rate.

Mr. Williams estimated that the program
would cost the province $4.5-million.

He also promised to put more police
officers on the streets, build more long-term care facilities
and maintain the province's freeze on post-secondary tuition.

The legislature was dissolved Monday,
kicking off a three-week campaign that Mr. Williams is widely
expected to win.

The vote is the first under the
province's fixed-date legislation.

At dissolution, the Tories had 34 seats,
the Liberals 11 and the NDP one. There are also two vacant
seats.

Williams is to be congratulated on being one of the
first politicians to putting one foot in the right
direction. But, he has done so without any real
thought or facing reality which is that Canada has a
negative population growth because Canada does NOT
have a mandatory presumption of equal parenting
after divorce or separation. Fathers in Canadian
family courts are treated as second class humans,
its male gender apartheid and you can feel the
hatred oozing out of the courtroom walls. Lawyers
fabricate evidence personally, judges engage in the
process of justification simply to give custody to a
woman who may be a drug addicted mentally ill
violent prostitute. It simply does not matter how
good a dad you are when you go into family court,
because you are male odds are you are going to be on
the receiving end of Canada's unofficial policy of
male gender apartheid. Its got to end. The only way
is to legislate a mandatory presumption of equal
parenting after divorce. Equal means equal time,
there is no reason generally why a child should not
have the benefit of a mother and a father. So, Danny
Williams are you going to address the real problem?
Are you going to express your support and propose
legislation that will make a legal presumption of
Equal Parenting after separation or divorce?
